Vanessa Hudgens announces she's pregnant with baby No 2

Vanessa Hudgens is expanding her family!

The High School Musical alum, 36, took to Instagram on Saturday to reveal she’s expecting her second child with husband Cole Tucker.

In a sweet carousel of snaps, the actress showed off her growing baby bump in a chic open shirt and matching skirt. 

The loved-up couple held hands, laughed, and pointed to her belly, looking completely smitten.

Vanessa captioned the post, “Round two!!!!”

Vanessa and Cole tied the knot in December 2023 during a romantic ceremony in Tulum, Mexico. 

Just four months later, she debuted her first baby bump at the 2024 Academy Awards — and now, baby No. 2 is already on the way!

Vanessa sparked a romance with now-husband Cole in 2021 after they met during a Zoom meditation session during COVID.

After two years of dating, the couple got engaged in February 2023. 

At the time, she jumped to her main Instagram page to give her fans a glimpse of the diamond sparkler on her hand with the Eiffel Tower close by in the distance. 

Hudgens first faced pregnancy rumors after posting photos and video from her bachelorette party in October 2023 in Aspen, Colorado.

She admitted on the She Pivots podcast in March that the 'rude' pregnancy speculation made her feel 'fat' and detracted from what was supposed to be 'the happiest' time in her life.

'I feel like I literally just had a run-in with the public taking control over their opinion of me in a way that was disrespectful,' the star expressed during the episode. 

Ten months later, Vanessa tied the knot with Cole during a lavish wedding in Tulum, Mexico on December 2, 2023. 

She told Vogue that seeing Cole at the altar was 'the most emotional moment of my life.

 'I literally keeled over when I saw Cole and had to take a big breath and had to force myself to keep walking because I could have dropped to the floor,' she recalled to the outlet. 

Prior to her relationship with her now-husband, Vanessa had previously been in a long-term relationship with Elvis actor Austin Butler.

Around the time she revealed her pregnancy news, Vanessa shared that she was grateful for their breakup as it led to her meeting Cole.

During her March 2024 appearance on the She Pivots podcast, she said: 'I feel my last breakup has really catapulted me to a very, very special place, obviously

'You pushed me to the right person,' she continued, adding that their split is something she is 'so grateful for.'
